I do in fact work full time. I try to separate my work life from my personal/family life as I already spend way too much time at work.

Totally understand. I guess my work has always been entwined in my personal… I met my ex husband at work and all of my best friends are people I worked with at some point

There's A Big Difference Between Your Work Friends And Your Real Friends

I guess that works for you but I would never date co worker and work friends have boundaries imo. You have made work your identity with no outside life.

Maybe true when I was in my 20’s. But I’m 48 and def don’t hang out with my coworkers anymore, as they are all half my age. I’m friendly with them, and we have fun at work (you have to in restaurants or you’ll end up crying in the walk-in)

All of my friends are people I met at different jobs, but 20-30 years ago.

Edit: a letter

Like I said it works for you. I have worked in food service before so I know how kitchen culture goes. Still the same response.
